What is the ruling if someone says, 'I seized an object from you (ghasabtuka shay'an)' and then explains it as self-seizure?

Primary text
If a person states, 'I seized an object from you,' and then interprets the 'object' as self-seizure (ghasb al-nafs), this explanation is not accepted. This interpretation is rejected because the initial statement established two objects: the implicit pronoun (it/the object of seizure) and the explicit word 'shay'an' (an object), and the second object must differ from the first, which is not the case here.
